The School Education Department in Coimbatore on Monday ordered the transfer of five teachers of a government school in Kinathukadavu block, including two who have been booked under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, until further notice.

The transfers follow allegations by three girl students, who accused a music teacher and a botany teacher of inappropriate touching. The allegations came to light on Friday after masked videos of the students circulated online.
